David Lynch spent the last portion of his life in isolation. He said it was due to being high-risk and unable to risk getting COVID.

He’s not the only person with disability or illness who’s been left behind.

The state of the American healthcare system is an unacceptable tragedy for far too many. Look at your elected representatives, the media, and the pundits you listen to and ask yourself: are they paying attention to this, and if not, are the problems they're focusing on nearly as impactful to us?

Ask yourself why so little change benefiting everyday people ever comes to pass and who profits when we're distracted fighting against one another.
